Optimal Compounding

Polli's intelligent compounding system automatically claims and re-stakes your rewards at the optimal frequency to maximize your returns while minimizing transaction costs.

How It Works

Our system calculates a personalized optimal compounding interval for each validator delegation based on:

  • Stake size - Larger stakes benefit from more frequent compounding
  • Current APR - Higher yields make compounding more profitable
  • Transaction fees - Network gas costs are factored into timing decisions
  • Service fees - Optimization fees are included in profitability calculations

Adaptive Timing

  • Small wallets - Compounding too frequently would result in losses due to network fees. Our system may compound weekly or monthly.
  • Medium wallets - Optimal intervals typically range from a few days to a week.
  • Large wallets - Daily or even more frequent compounding may be optimal.

The system continuously recalculates the optimal interval as your stake grows and market conditions change.

Profitability Checks

Compounding is only executed when it's profitable. Before each compounding action, the system verifies:

  • ✅ Claimable rewards exceed transaction costs
  • ✅ Rewards exceed service fees
  • ✅ The optimal interval has elapsed since last compounding
  • ✅ Sufficient fee grant or wallet balance exists

If any check fails, compounding is postponed until conditions are favorable.

The Compounding Process

  1. Reward Analysis - System checks pending rewards across all your delegations
  2. Interval Calculation - Determines optimal timing based on APY maximization
  3. Profitability Verification - Ensures compounding will be net positive
  4. Execution - Claims rewards and immediately re-delegates them to the same validators
  5. Fee Collection - Service fee is collected only after successful compounding

Maximizing Returns

By automatically compounding at optimal intervals, Polli helps you:

  • Maximize APY - Compound interest grows your stake exponentially
  • Avoid wasteful fees - Never compound when it's not profitable
  • Save time - No manual monitoring or transaction execution needed
  • Scale efficiently - As your stake grows, compounding frequency adapts automatically

Your rewards are always reinvested at the perfect timing to maximize long-term returns.
